The Role of NADPH Oxidase and Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase in Zinc-Induced Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase Activation and Cell Death in Cortical Culture
Abstract
In the present study, we examined the role and the mechanism of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) activation in zinc-induced cell death in cortical culture. After brief exposure to 400 microM zinc, cortical cells exhibited DNA fragmentation, increased poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, and decreased levels of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and ATP and subsequently underwent cell death. Inhibitors of PARP/PARG attenuated both zinc-induced NAD/ATP depletion and cell death, thereby implicating the PARP/PARG cascade in these processes. The zinc-inducible enzymes NADPH oxidase and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) contributed to PARP activation as their inhibitors attenuated zinc-induced poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. Levels of nitric oxide and nitrites increased following zinc exposure, consistent with NOS activation. In addition, Western blots and RT-PCR analysis revealed that protein and mRNA levels of nNOS specifically increased following zinc exposure in a manner similar to that of NADPH oxidase. The present study demonstrates that induction of NADPH oxidase and nNOS actively contributes to PARP/PARG-mediated NAD/ATP depletion and cell death induced by zinc in cortical culture.

Zinc influx into neurons leads to nitric oxide generation, PARP-1 activation, and cell death.
“Like Ca 2+ influx, zinc influx into neurons leads to the generation of nitric oxide and subsequent activation of PARP-1 and cell death [114].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
